Historically, school trips to working farms offered hands-on learning. Now, our interactive cow brings that experience to classrooms, exhibitions, and events, making agricultural education both accessible and entertaining.

Bridging the Gap: Education vs. Regulation
In recent years, strict health and safety regulations—including compulsory risk assessments—have made it increasingly challenging for farmers to participate in educational programmes. These well-intentioned rules often create unintended barriers, discouraging farm visits that once offered invaluable learning experiences.
It’s no surprise that many farmers now feel compelled to double-check their insurance cover before welcoming groups onto their land. While the risks are real, the result is a growing disconnect between children and the origins of their food.
Our life-size milking cow model helps bridge that gap—bringing the farm to the classroom, event, or exhibition in a safe, engaging, and unforgettable way.
